FAITH IN HUMANITY RESTORED

As anyone who knows me will know - I have a penchent for all things high-brow: including "Celebrity Big Brother". My faith in humanity has been shattered in previous "seasons" of CBB and BB proper - when the nation's witch hunt has typically ended up in the execution, sorry eviction, of the most intelligent & morally upright housemates.

Fortunately this series has proved me wrong as Shilpa Shetty was crowned the winner. I backed Shilpa from day one. Even before the bullys got stuck in.

I wonder if the forore that surrounded this year's show will make Joe "UK" Public take a long hard look at themselves? I doubt it. But for a brief moment they got it right...

Mooi. Ne.

IT'S GOOD TO WALK

I may not always be crossing my training runs off (tsk) - but I'm walking at least 6 miles (10km) a day these days - getting to the train for work and back. Which must be good for the old ticker.

I took advantage of a sunny lunctime yesterday and set off in search of Clifton Suspension Bridge (the location of the first bungee jump in 1977) and ended up doing a 3 mile (5km) route:
Which filled up the vitamin D reserves - until I leave for Oz next week!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Wishing you all a briljant 2007.

Lekker.
